Abstract

We present an interconnection network, called Syncube, which is a new implementation scheme of hypercube. The hardware complexity of syncube is O(Nlog 2 N). Communication is much faster through syncube than that through a traditional hypercube with the same hardware complexity. We will give algorithm which can make full use of the connections and can realize log2 N permutations simultaneously so that communication bandwidth is fully increased.
